On a rainy, lazy Sunday, there is nothing better than fresh, sticky, and sweet cinnamon rolls. These are well worth the time and will make you rethink ever buying them pre-made again. This recipe is made for a 1 lb bread machine, so it will work with any size of machine you may have! If you have a larger machine you can also scale up the recipe for even more cinnamon rolls!

Bread Machine Cinnamon Rolls
Sinfully sweet, making your Sunday special, cinnamon rolls. With a little help from your favorite bread machine.
Place dough ingredients into your bread machine in the order recommended by your manufacturer. Select the dough cycle and run.
Turn out your dough onto a lightly floured surface, cover and let rest for 10 minutes. In a small bowl combine sugar and cinnamon.
Roll the dough into a 16 x 10 inch rectangle. Spread the softened butter evenly over the surface and sprinkle evenly with the sugar/cinnamon mixture.
Roll up the dough, so that your roll is 10 inches long. Cut into 6 rolls. Place rolls in a lightly greased baking pan, cover, and let rise until nearly doubled, about 30 minutes. (It may be hard to see, look more for increase in thickness of the spirals of the roll rather than increase in height)
Preheat oven to 400 degrees, and bake for 15-18 minutes, until the tops are gently browned.
While the rolls are baking, make the icing by whisking together the icing ingredients. Spread the icing over warm rolls before serving.
Some troubleshooting options for this if you’re experiencing issues: This may depend on your baking pan, or your oven.
I’ve found that if they are over-packed in the baking pan then the centers will be too gooey. I realize now that I didn’t actually specify a baking pan size with the recipe. A 9″ round will likely be your best bet, or a 9×9″ square pan. An 8″ will likely leave you too packed and with uneven baking.
I also found that with my mother’s oven it tended to run hotter than was actually indicated by the oven and needed to be re-calibrated, we ended up with this issue every time we baked anything.
Hopefully checking the pan size or the oven temp can help you to have more success in this recipe.
These turned out nearly perfect. Only nearly because of my oven variance. I will have to set it at 350• They are huge. Even got seven instead of six. Very light and tender. Fantastic flavor. I hate kneading dough, so by using my bread machine, it will allow me to make these often. I would definitely recommend this recipe,
Hello Charlene,
Yes you can – depending on your bread machine. This recipe is designed for a 1 lb bread machine (the smallest size I’ve come across). If you have a 2 lb bread machine you can double it. If you have a 1.5 lb (the most common that I’ve found) you likely could, since you’re not baking them in the bread machine, but you might want to try 1.5x the recipe first to make sure it’s not overfilled.

Overly cooked tops and centers still too goey. Need to bake at lower temp!

Can I double the dough recipe, if I want to make more than 6 at a time?

Best Cinnamon Roll I have ever had!
Only change was I cut them smaller and baked at 350 for approximately 25 minutes.

Can the dough recipe be doubled? So I can make more than 6 at one time.
